LC question about your camp wainwright primitive weapons season...are you using a crossbow or muzzle loader? If muzzle loader is it a iron sight flint lock or a high presision sabot with pyrodex? I guess the reason I ask is it seems odd to suggest that someone should use a crossbow when they could use a different weapon with a larger advantage.
So do you not think that the way you are looking at the crossbow to be selfish as you hunt with a compound bow yet you don't want to let others hunt with a crossbow which arguably has just as many disadvantages as advantages to the compound bow one of which seems to be the proficiency in which a cross bow is shot.
I was on your side of the fence and am closer to the middle now but I guess I had a relavation that I think the whole compound vs crossbow is hogwash.
Funny enough, camp wainwright does not allow cross bows. Xbows have huge advantages over compounds - 5http://www.outdoorcanada.ca/5_Huge_Crossbow_Advantages/
